The rabble ran amok
in the citadel today
in broad daylight,
pasting egg on the face
of the mother country.
They pelted the royal seed
with home made terrorist
rocks, and swore obscenities
to demonstrate the
behaviour of the genteel
class under financial strain.
Children of the empire,
we have been expertly
potty trained and will not follow
this object lesson in loyalty.
We strained under heavy yokes
wiped our eyes with dirt
swallow we tongue
and swear allegiances
to indiscriminate successors,
so help me God.
